In The Giant Hero in Medieval Literature Tina Boyer counters the monstrous
status of giants by arguing that they are more broadly legible than
traditionally believed. Building on an initial analysis of St. Augustine’s City
of God, Bernard of Clairvaux’s deliberations on monsters and marvels, and
readings in Tomasin von Zerclaere’s Welsche Cast provide insights into the
spectrum of antagonistic and heroic roles that giants play in the courtly realm.
This approach places the figure of the giant within the cultural and religious
confines of the twelfth and thirteenth centuries and allows an in-depth
analysis of epics and romances through political, social, religious, and gender
identities tied to the figure of the giant. Sources range from German to French,
English, and Iberian works.
